A CRISPR-Cas9 platform for primary human hepatocytes enables arrayed screening and in vivo validation of HBV host factors
Lipofection- and lentivirus-mediated protocols for CRISPR-Cas9 delivery in mouse-passaged primary human hepatocytes (mpPHH) are reported, a system that enables PHH expansion in liver-humanized mice and enables scalable genetic manipulation of mpPHH, opening new avenues for HBV research and liver disease modeling.
